[Photo/Unsplash]人们常说，“三岁一代沟，五岁一鸿沟”“代沟”，指年轻一代与老一代由于经验、观点、习惯和行为等的不同而存在心理距离或心理隔阂（a situation in which older and younger people do not understand each other because of their different experiences, opinions, habits, and behavior）。

实际上，“代沟”一词是由英文“the generation gap”直译而来，由于译法贴切而新颖，加上易于记忆，所以马上成了汉语常用语例句：作为一个年轻的政治家，她设法弥合了新老两代政治家之间的代沟Shes a young politician who manages to bridge the generation gap.
